Whenever Luke Clayton rides in on his horse, the townspeople scatter and disappear. But there is always an exception: a young, brash kid who wants to lay claim to the title "the fastest gun in the west." When Clayton arrives in a new spot, everyone suspects that this fateful day will be no different. Can there finally be a meeting in a wild west town that doesn't end in killing? Will Clayton ride out of town the way he came in, alone and friendless, or will this encounter change the course of his life forever?
